For No Good Reason 2012

Ralph
Steadman came from Britain to work on the illustrations for works written by
Hunter S. Thompson.Fear and
Loathing in Las Vegas and The Curse of Lono.When Ralph starts working with his inks, he doesn’t know
what is going to come from the paper.He just begins and then he sees what happens as he goes along.He uses many different techniques
unique in contemporary art.In
this film, the drawings are brought to life through animation for the first
time.Interviews with Johnny Depp
and others in the cast offer more information about Ralph and the work.

Ralph
Steadman is unusual with a completely different style as an artist.He doesn’t see things the way most
people do and you recognize his work immediately.There is a lot of insight into his work process in this
film.3 ½* (I liked this movie)
